Eggpress #Write_On Letterpress Cards

Given the uncertainty of things going on all around us the last few weeks, one bright spot was getting this Write On mystery pack of letterpress cards from Eggpress.  I mean, if we are all trying to be at home more and socializing a lot less, what better time than now to send out some cards to friends and family?

Not to make light of the current situation at all - sending mail is always a nice way to reach out and let someone know you're thinking of them.  My specific mystery pack has a great variety of cards for different occasions, and I'll definitely plan on sending out a lot more mail in the next few weeks! 

USPS - Sesame Street Stamps

With the amount of cards that I send out, I'm always happy to see new stamp designs come out from USPS.  Especially if they're fun designs like these Sesame Street stamps!  These would be super cute to send out to family or friends with little ones that love Sesame Street.  I only wish they had come out with extra versions that have multiples of certain characters - the Cookie Monster one especially would be fun to send, haha.  Be sure to check these out if you're looking for cute new stamps! 

USPS - Heart Blossom Stamp

I periodically check to see if any new stamp designs come out from the US Post Office, and I was happy to see this cute Heart Blossom design right before Valentine's Day! The little "love" handwriting is super cute, and it's the perfect mix of floral/heart designs.  I'm glad there's still some cute designs coming out and hope there's more moving forward too!

Frozen Treats USPS Stamps

How cute are these new Frozen Treats postage stamps!? I knew as soon as I saw these online I had to get a LOT of them, haha.  I love all the different colors in each set of Popsicles, and they really are scratch and sniff stamps!  I can't really pinpoint exactly what the smell is, but it is a faintly sweet smell.  These are perfect for sending out mail in the summer, or even year-round if you're a fan of ice cream like I am.  I hope USPS continues to come out with fun stamp designs in the future!

USPS - Disney Villains Stamps

 

It's no surprise since I enjoy sending mail, but I love seeing when USPS comes out with new stamp designs, haha.  There have been a lot of fun ones over the years, and this recent Disney Villains set is definitely one for both kids and kids at heart!  I love how colorful these stamps are, and anyone that is a fan of Disney movies would love these!  I hope USPS continues to come out with movie-themed stamps, they're always a big hit.

USPS - Love Skywriting Stamps

These "Love Skywriting" stamps came out in January and they are so fun!  I always like when there are creative designs for the newly issued stamps.  If they aren't available at your local post office - buying them online is very easy and the shipping costs are minimal.  And of course, these are perfect for mailing out Valentine's Day cards which is coming up next week! 

USPS - Summer Harvest Stamps

How cute are these Summer Harvest stamps from the USPS?  These came out in July, but I finally remembered to ask about them yesterday at the post office.  They look like vintage farm and produce advertisements and they add such a cute touch to your mail!  

USPS - Gifts of Friendship Stamps

How pretty are these new springtime stamps? I saw these Gifts of Friendship stamps on the USPS website and immediately had to pre-order some.

According to the press release, "The U.S. Postal Service and Japan Post jointly issued Gifts of Friendship Forever stamps today, celebrating the American issuance during the Cherry Blossom Festival in Washington, DC.  The stamps feature beautiful images of flowering dogwood and cherry trees and honor the enduring connection between two nations on the centennial of the gift of dogwood trees from the United States to Japan in 1915."

While the cherry blossom season is coming to a close here in DC, these are a great way to celebrate any time you want to send some springtime cheer!

USPS - Vintage Rose Stamps

I recently saw these Vintage Rose stamps on the USPS website and had to order them ASAP! I actually thought the flowers were peonies at first, but they are very pretty stamps nonetheless.  I was also pleasantly surprised to find that the flowers are textured, so the stamps aren't completely smooth and you can feel the lines of the flower petals - how cool!  These are a very pretty design, and I'm sure I will be using them up very quickly, haha.
